    From the July/August edition of National Geographic History magazine. The title is, " Cabeza de Vaca: Explorer, Survivor, Historian", by Jose Garrido Palacios. After serving as a soldier for his native Spain, Alvar Nunez de Vaca looked for opportunity in the unfolding colonization of the Americas. His expeditions included being shipwrecked and enslaved. His attitude toward the indigenous was conciliatory and diplomatic, at odds with the militants in the local military and civil administration. He chronicled his expeditions in his acclaimed book, "La Relacion", later revised as La Relacion y Comentarios".
